This match highlights a problem with ranked matching.

20 minutes early surrender. score: 1.. to 17 ONE to SEVENTEEN. And I got the only kill.

after somwhere between the 7th and the 10th death, I attempted to bring some small amount of wisdom to my team.

"Guys... you keep dying. Would you all just pick a turret, and stay under it? Please?"

to which I am treated to a chorus of, "Wow, you're so toxic!" "Yeah, report that guy. so toxic."

Buhhhh...

This is why we need an alternative to the current ranked queue styles. The rumored ranked teambuilder sounds nice, but it cant cure stupid. and it's impossible for me to climb the latter when I keep getting matched with these kinds of players on my team.

So thats why I think there needs to be something like a free form invite-your-friends mode for ranked. Simplest thing would be to make it full-5 vs full-5. That way, no need to try to attempt to calculate penalties for pre-mades vs randoms.
